Cook Company processes and packages frozen seafood. The year just ended was Cook's first year of business and they are preparing financial statements.

(There are no work-in-process inventories). Cook used 123,500 hours of labor. Total direct labor costs paid by Cook for the year amounted to $3,087,500.

Required:
a. & b. What was the direct labor price variance and the direct labor efficiency variance for the year?
c. Assume Cook writes off all variances to Cost of Goods Sold. Prepare the entries Cook would make to record and close out the variances.
d. Assume Cook prorates all variances to the appropriate accounts. Prepare the entries Cook would make to record and close out the variances.

Prepare in journal entry form all adjusting and correcting journal entries based on the following information.  All information was provided to you as of 12/31/2018.  (Round all numbers to the nearest dollar).

(i) Czar has two loans outstanding as of 12/31/2018. Interest is paid annually on January 1st. The facts on each loan are as follows: First Trust Bank Loan – outstanding since January 1, 2018 with a 6% interest rate. This loan was taken out to finance the construction of the Storage Building. Interest for the year and 10% of the principle will be paid to the bank on                                         January 1, 2019.  Except for recording the initial cash received and loan, no additional entries have been made. Loan Payable has a credit balance of $520,000 for First Trust Ban Coldwell Bank Loan – also outstanding all of 2018 with 5 % interest rate. Interest is due on January 1, 2019. Principle is due on January 1, 2025.  Since interest will not be paid to the Bank until 2019, Czar’ office staff did not accrue any interest. Loan Payable has a credit balance of $1,600,000 for Coldwell Bank.

(J) On January 1, 2018, Czar recorded a patent in the amount of $120,000. The company paid outside legal fees of $64,000 to have the patent registered. The other $56,000 represents internal costs in developing the patent. The patent is good for 20 years, but the company estimates that the patent will have a useful life of 8 years with no residual value. Amortization is straight line. The company depreciates using partial years for intangible assets.  No amortization has been recorded for 2018.

(K) As of 12/31/2018 the Available for Sale Securities have a fair value of $232,430. Due to the market conditions, the company does not plan on selling the assets in 2019, but their intent is to sell at some point in time. You can ignore the tax effect on unrealized gains and losses.

(L) The office building was bought in January 1, 2016 and Czar plans to use the building for 40 years and believes it will have a salvage value of $200,000 at the end of 40 years.  Czar depreciates the building on a straight line basis. Due to the location of the building and use potential, Czar is concerned about impairment.  At 12/31/2018 it is determined that the future cash flows for the building are $2,400,000. The fair value of the building is $2,720,000 at 12/31/2018.

What do I really need to study before studying ANOVA?

I'm very behind in stats but I have a test coming up on Single factor ANOVA, Randomised Blocks, Two Way ANOVA and Tests for normality.

It's for a 2nd year course in Applied Statistics, I want to study but I don't know what I should revise first, confidence intervals? all of hypothesis tests? Apparently most of the work can be done on excel but I still need to understand the question before attempting.

Would appreciate any advice !
